In this project, we apply what we have learned from the SNAPSHOT study to the problem of changing behavior. We explore the design of user-centered tools that can harness the experience of collecting and reflecting on personal data to promote healthy behaviors, including stress management and sleep regularity. We will draw on commonly used theories of behavior change as the inspiration for distinct conceptual designs for a behavior change application based on the SNAPSHOT study. This approach will enable us to compare the types of visualization strategies that are most meaningful and useful for acting on each theory.
